🚀 KoBar v1.1.0: The Plugin Architecture Update

Welcome to KoBar v1.1.0! This is a massive milestone that transforms KoBar from a monolithic application into a powerful, modular Plugin Host. We've completely rebuilt the core to give you absolute freedom over your workspace.

✨ What's New

🧩 Plugin-Based Architecture

KoBar is now fully modular. Instead of shipping with every tool built-in, KoBar provides a lightweight, blazing-fast core. You can now customize your sidebar by installing only the tools you actually need!

📥 Official KoBar Plugins Registry

We are thrilled to launch the KoBar Plugins Registry—a centralized, automated marketplace for KoBar extensions.

In-App Store: Browse, install, and update plugins instantly from within KoBar.
Growing Ecosystem: We're kicking off with a suite of official plugins, including AI Hub, Clipboard Manager, Snippet Vault, Screenshot Studio, KoPlayer, and more!

🪄 Vibe Coding Support (Build with AI)

You don't need to be an expert developer to build a KoBar plugin. KoBar officially supports Vibe Coding!

We've included specialized Agent Skills in the for-agents directory of the repository.
Just use your favorite AI coding assistant (like Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, or Antigravity) to read these rules and automatically write custom plugins for you—with zero coding required.
Test your creations instantly using the built-in pluginsPlayground local testing environment.

🛠️ Developer Friendly

Want to build and publish your own plugin? It's easier than ever. Create a GitHub repo, add a kobar.json manifest, and submit a pull request to the kobar-plugins-registry. Our automated bots will take care of the rest, making your plugin available to all KoBar users within minutes.

📈 Improvements & Fixes

Performance: Significant memory optimizations and faster startup times due to the decoupled, lightweight architecture.
Cross-Platform Foundation: Continued architectural improvements laying the groundwork for the upcoming macOS release.
UI/UX Polish: Refined animations and smoother transitions for the new Plugin Manager interface.
